Engineering is about more than just churning through equations, and Chuck Stricker wants people to realize that. That talent in math is the defining trait needed to become an engineer is a myth that ...

The Department of Engineering Sciences and Applied Mathematics (ESAM) at Northwestern University is highly interdisciplinary and focused on applications. Our faculty and students connect with ...

All routes to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) degrees run through calculus classes. Each year, hundreds of thousands of college students take introductory calculus. But only a ...

THE manifold problems of modern engineering are making great demands upon the applications of mathematics, and, as a consequence, many textbooks dealing with the mathematical principles underlying ...

Mathematical thinking is playing an increasingly dominant role in experimental design, data analysis, and the conceptual understanding of Life. Through reading a diversity of papers at the interface ...

In 2012, the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology released a report calling for a national effort to produce 1 million more STEM graduates. Science, technology, engineering, and ...

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...
